Column to show combined selection of fields

Hunter1428

Hey all,

Is it possible to combine a number of fields so they show under one column within a dashboard.

Rich Filters can do this pretty much exactly how I want, but it has a limited number of slots you can put Smart Filter is before having to use another Smart Filter.

Example

• Field A (Single List)
• Field B (Single List)
• Field C (Single List)

We would like all these values to be shown within a Field D (Label?). This would make it so we don't have to have multiple columns which starts to cramp everything up and it would just be one column on a dashboards.

+ If we add anything new to Field A,B,C. Field D would just dynamically update.

Tried

• JSU combine field these field but as a Single List is not a Sting it wont merge with a Label.
• Script runner , I lack knowledge here, only managed with a "Listener" to keep adding Field A to Field D, could not get it to pick up Field B or C and Append/Overwrite the in Field D.

 

Any suggestions/ideas?

 

Thanks

-Nick

While I have not tested it directly, I believe that a power script custom field would work. You would write a script in SIL that would calculate the value of the custom field you define.

The field is recalculated when the issue is edited. 

The label field is treated as an array of strings, so you would have to use the array methods to add the items.

The cprime guys are pretty responsive if you try it out and are having trouble figuring it out.
